You can get the engine part number off of the block and contact Cummins they will send you a new spec plate you can rivet back onto the accessory drive that is what it's called where the plate goes in front of the air compressor I own 2 big cam 400's. The truck vin# sometimes doesn't help find engine info because those engines only last about 500,000 before needing an in-frame done and you can only rebuild them about 3-5 times before the block is worn out so most of them had an engine swap already not saying those trucks have just throwing it out thereBoxCarKidd Thanks this.
